I payed for the pro after they locked the addition feature which was originally free. Used it once and the next time I went to use it the addition feature was locked again saying that I needed to upgrade to pro to use this feature. Give me back my money. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Nope *2023-09-27* Wish I could type in a measurement like 4’ and see how many inches it is ### 1/5 — This app is garbage *2023-01-01, version 1.0.7* Crashes, and is a money grab. There are much better options available ### 1/5 — Lame way to make $2.99 *2021-07-26, version 1.0.6* Just sell the app for the price you want, instead of offering it for ‘free’ and then locking the addition (most commonly used) key. That’s a real chump move. I wish I could give less than one star. ### 1/5 — Get a different one. Looks as cheap as it performs *2021-05-02, version 1.0.6* Don’t get it. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t average distance *2020-08-23, version 1.0.6* I purchased this app under the assumption that it would average distance. I wanted to use it on a ship for figuring draft measurements. It does not do that. Wasted $3. ### 1/5 — Rip off *2020-07-27, version 1.0.6* . you have to pay $3 to unlock the plus sign just to add ### 1/5 — Crap *2020-01-04, version 1.0.5* I can’t believe I paid for this 🤯 Regular Calc does more than this 💩 ### 1/5 — App mislabeled. Simple look at tape measure for idiots *2019-11-15, version 1.0.4* Looks like a free app until you try to add something then you have to pay to unlock the functions. Should be labeled tape measurements for dummies. ### 1/5 — Plumber *2019-06-12, version 1.03* Do not like that it dosnt give you inches and fractions it only gives you a decimal. If all I was measuring is metric measurements that would be great but unfortunately that’s not the world I live in. I’ll just stick to a pencil an paper on figuring my measurements ### 1/5 — Will not update after payment *2019-04-09, version 1.0.2* I do like this app, but I paid for the Pro version when the addition function in the free addition was locked.....it is still locked after payment. What that all about??? ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it! *2023-01-12, version 1.0.7* Easy to use, and accurate! ### 5/5 — Buenísimo *2022-05-16, version 1.0.6* Muy buena ### 5/5 — I love it *2020-12-21, version 1.0.6* Nice app ### 5/5 — I told my wife it’s the best app on my phone *2020-12-21, version 1.0.6* I love this app, and here’s my wife> “He really did. He was in the middle of raving about it when I was saved by the pop-up asking him to submit a review. Thank you!!! 😅” ### 5/5 — Hickory Mike *2020-11-08, version 1.0.6* A must for converting measurements and using fractions. Saves time! ### 5/5 — Awesome calculator *2019-08-13, version 1.03* Thank you it does a wonderful job! ### 5/5 — Excelente *2019-03-28, version 1.0.2* Muy buena app para agarrar medidas 👍👍 ### 5/5 — This App does not allow you to calculate *2018-11-01, version 1.0.1* This is NOT a carpenter Calculator!! It will not allow a simple calculation for instance: 190’5 11/16” divided by 2? I upgraded to PRO: now it links me to other Apps this app is not what it should be the title should be changed... I want my money back!!! ### 4/5 — Does the job, has usability weakness *2023-01-17, version 1.0.7* I love the interface and it does the job with style. But (speaking as a developer) it would have been enormously more effective if you could perform multiple transactions where result from previous is recalled. Plus, no save/add to memory function .. that’s just lazy! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
